Sharon Case (born February 9 1971 in Detroit, Michigan) is an Emmy Award-winning American actress.

Early life

In her childhood, Case focused on ballet and jazz. While in grammar school her family moved to Los Angeles, where she was discovered at a supermarket. She was offered and accepted a job in Japan when she was 17 and worked there for five months before returning to LA, where she took acting lessons.

Career

In 1994, she became the third, and longest-running, actress to play Sharon Newman on "The Young and the Restless", a role that she still plays today. Case has won several awards for her work on "Y&R", including the Outstanding Supporting Actress Daytime Emmy in 1999. She also received the 1998 Soap Opera Award for Hottest Female In A Daytime Drama. In April 2007, Case renewed her contract with the show, signing on for three more years.

In 1989, she assumed the role of Dawn Winthrop on "General Hospital"; she left the show in 1990. She then took the role of Debbie Simon on "As the World Turns" in 1992 and played the role until 1993.

In 2005, she filmed a movie called "Carpool Guy" with co-star Lauralee Bell.

Along with doing work in soaps, Case has also appeared in several primetime shows including "Cheers", "Beverly Hills 90210", "Parker Lewis Can't Lose" and "Silk Stalkings". Early in her career, Case turned down an offer to appear in a large role in the HBO film "Breast Men" because she didn't feel comfortable being topless in a movie.

Co-star Melody Thomas Scott has said that Case is her closest friend from the show.cite news | title=Y&R's Melody Thomas Scott May Not Have a Storyline, But She Has a Lot to Say | date=2007-02-13 | publisher= "Soap Opera Weekly"| pages = 10-11 ]
